Board the Lady Delphine and have Captain Chuck take you out 7 miles into the Atlantic Ocean to the Western Sambo, a protected Marine Sanctuary. NOAA, a government organization says it has the mostdiversity, with over two hundred kinds of fish. Since this is way out on the South West corner of the Island not may tourist boat travel out there from their downtown locations .This live reef is one of the best in Key West; here you will see huge coral heads. See Elkhorn coral the last remaining stands of living coral in the Lower Keys, which was once in abundant here. See tons of tropical fish and don’t be surprise to see a Nurse Shark on the bottom, big black and scary, however they are harmless. Dolphins are a common sight and possible even a sea turtle or a Sting Ray will be seen on this incredible ocean adventure.

This snorkeling trip and fishing excursion puts you I think in a magical place; it is the Florida Keys largest protected zone, no touch, no take. When I am here I feel as if I am one with the sea life, they don’t seem to mind the snorkelers getting close enough to touch. It is intense; words cannot explain the extreme joy and elation this place brings. Your small party will not scare off the ocean life in this unique spot.

Once you enter the warm water you are instantly over taken by hundreds of fish. We move along a reef that’s a thousand feet long and we cut through an underwater fox hole with coral on both sides while sea fans are moving in the ocean breeze which surrounds you in brilliant colors. Swimming along we come to a giant donut hole carved in the reef. At this spot if you are a good swimmer you can deflate your safety vest and swim under the reef at a depth of 13 feet.

At this southern most spot you are 160 miles off the coast of Miami and 7 miles off the Island of Key West. You are surrounded by countless sea creatures, everywhere your eyes wander you will be amazed and surprised by the variety of life you will see.

This wills definitely the highlight of your vacation. This reef is about 3 to 10 feet deep so take the plunge into the warm ocean water with top quality snorkel gear compliments of the Lady Delphine.

Next you will do some Reef fishing in another location away from the protect sanctuary. We have a choice of different spots; one of my favorites is the USNS General Hoyt S Vandenberg, the ship was sunk 27 May 2009 which was the most expensive artificial reef in the world and the second-largest artificial reef in the world. On a clear day you can see from the deck of the Lady Delphine the stars and stripes on the flag, flying in the ocean breeze below on the military spy ships deck. http://www.fla-keys.com/diving/vandenberg/
